Label chief Kenneth Bager rounds up the very best tracks released this year on Music For Dreams. The compilation will be released digitally on December 29.

'Music For Dreams, Best Of 2023' →https://linktr.ee/musicfordreams

The Copenhagen-based indie label has entered the third decade of its existence as a stronghold in the outer regions of pop and electronic music. The label’s ever eclectic output reflects the taste of its founder and man-in-charge, DJ and producer Kenneth Bager: a man as comfortable with campy sunbathed pop as he is with finespun minimalism and experimental electronic adventures. What is sought here at the Copenhagen offices is music with a personality.

As a showcase of the label’s current operations, Kenneth Bager here compiles the highlights from this year’s releases. “I think the selection of tracks reflects the consistent quality of output we’ve been able to produce. Our music is very eclectic and often outside the codes of conventional taste. But I think that is what sets us apart and why people keep listening to us,” Bager says.

The compilation comprises 25 tracks which run the full spectrum of MFD’s
offerings: from full-bodied Balearic anthems and funk-heavy house pop to
sweeping ambient landscapes and nebulous electronic experiments.

Check out such gems as the warm, cornucopian downtempo of ‘El Malagueño’ from Spanish Be.lanuit’s debut LP; the exquisite repose of Ambala’s ‘Quiet Yellow Purple’; the ethereal melancholia of Hess Is More’s ‘You And Me And Them’, the vulcanic funk of Julie Pavon’s house pop hit ‘Don’t Call Me or the ghostly electro-acoustic echoes of Prins Emanuel’s ‘Västan Vind’.

Great fun playing at City of Gods this past Halloween, one of the truly epic events on the NYC calendar. Here's a selection of tunes from the night, mixed into a long, deep, sultry, swirly kinda groove. More of a 'dancing in your head' type mix, lots of dubby, jazzy shit going on, but don't let that stop you from bustin a few moves either. With love to Ilan, Jenny and all at House of Yes, to Phil & James, my two wingmen on the Flying Scotty, and the everlovin', hard partying posse from Mirage Garage.

In February of 2015, the iconic Seattle venue known as Re-Bar celebrated it's 25 year anniversary.  To commemorate the occasion, the longest running House music night in the United States known as Flammable brought in the auditory shaman from the Wicked Crew, Jenö to set the dancefloor afire like only he can.  The night was nothing short of magic. Here lies the recorded snapshot of that moment in time...


Innerflight and the Work crew are joining forces to bring back the legendary sounds of Jenö to Kremwerk this Friday April 15th, 2016. He'll be putting on a 3 hr seminar on how it's really done in the realm of House and beyond.  Joining Jenö will be an all-star local lineup featuring Brian Lyons, Xan Lucero, Chad Neiro, Patrick Hernandez, Ajax Aubry and Kadeejah Streets.
